😲🤩
Nice and sturdy 💯
Thanks so much for the tip!😊
Glad to help!
Brilliant formula! Thank you!
Glad to help
Oh, it's such a cute design, I directly go to watch your other videos, to see, how you made it! Best regards from Hamburg, Germany!
Wow, this was such a simple yet amazing solution! Thank you so much ♥
so happy to help!
This is brilliant!
Thank you so much. 😊
Yes!!! It worked!! I've spent ages trying to find a way to cut out my design without ruining it when taking it out of the die. The talcum powder did the trick. Thank you.
So glad it helped you too. I have found it invaluable.
How did the die not cut through the paper? The first cut. I'm very new to die cutting.
It was pearlescent 300gsm paper so tough to cut! Needed more pressure than usual.😃
Thank you! What did you use to make your cones?
Now you are asking! If I remember correctly, I think I bought them in kit form on ebay- you can buy small and large numbers quite cheaply. Come flat packed.
Brilliant video, thank you so much for the tutorial!!
Glad it was useful!
Thank you for sharing. Will design my invitations as well after seeing this video. Absolutely gorgeous!
enjoy making the invitations! So pleased you enjoyed the video
Where can I get this stencil?
Found it on ebay but not sure if still available. Unbranded die.
Wonderful. Thank you. I was about to chuck the thing….xxxx
Pleased to help!😃
Thank you so much for posting this. I'm making a Howl's Moving Castle tunnel book for my girlfriend, she's gonna love it 😁
So pleased to help. Am sure she will love it!
Your card is exactly what I've been looking for, for 2 yrs. Now, I can make my own with my tree scene. Thank you ever so much! Blessings to you and yours this Christmas Season ~
Beautiful, where can I get those does?
Here is a list of the dies I used for the project: Sue Wilson - Finishing Touches Collection - Wooden Gate and Fence Tim Holtz Flower Jar Sizzix Framelits Die Set Crafts Brick Wall Effect Embossing Folder Unbranded house die Unbranded tree scene Unbranded small cats x 9 dies Unbranded Apple blossom Die - TREE SWING Unbranded Christmas tree dies I bought most of them via ebay and/or amazon
Just watched your video, thank you for sharing. I wondered if you have any advice on drying other flowers for confetti especially dahlias.
trial and error worked for me! I found microwave worked quite well for things like sweet peas ruclips.net/video/fUulLW9Wopc/видео.html and rose petals and suspect it might be the same for dahlia. Try a few petals out using microwave method and then a few in oven and see which works best. Let me know too - very interested !
Thank you so much! I've been doing Christmas cards and thought there had to be a better way than what I was doing since they're stuck to the die.
Glad to help! It is so frustrating when you cut out something beautiful and then wreck it trying to dig it out of the die!
Hi. Can you please let me know your website to learn how to create? Thank you :)
This was SUPER helpful! I had no clue how to set up my confetti cones for my upcoming wedding. Thank you so much for sharing!
So happy it has helped. Good to share ideas sometimes, especially when simple , which this is!
That's good, they've got a good home.
Wow! I like the way you explaining.
Does the powder show on colored card stock?
No , it brushes off easily 😃
@@JeanWaters Thanks for answering.
Ok
Your ideas are so amazing love l can't wait to make one fabulous x🥰
So pleased you like them. I have experimented with other methods too and you might find this video helpful , as I now assemble the panels in a way that I think works even better! Here is the link ruclips.net/video/5SrcW-adUAw/видео.html
Thank you a lot. I love die cutting and layering multiple of what I die cut. Mak it easy for me. Can I share it?
No reason why not. 😃
What type of paper is used?
Hi, I used double sided A4 300gsm pearlised cardstock . Hope that helps!
@@JeanWaters thanks a lot
Just shows there is more than one way to do something. I’m going to give this a try for my daughter’s wedding. Bless you!
so happy it is useful. Hope all goes well with the wedding! Have a wonderful time.
Thank You so much Ma'am for the simple and amazing tutorial. Most easy and quick but also attractive envelope making technique among all envelope making videos on RUclips. Thanks again.
so pleased it was helpful to you
This is beautiful and so elegant looking with the gold. So happy to have found your channel!
Really happy that you enjoy it. Sharing ideas is fun and we ll learn from each other.
This is just stunning, thank you for sharing!
Really pleased you enjoyed it. Fun cards to make.
Thank you Jean, this is stunning. x
Thanks Enid. So pleased you like it.
Hi Jean, it's been awhile...I hope you are well and happy! What a beautiful Nativity scene. I love the muted light in the background, not too bright...perfect touch! I think I have an idea for your partial die cutting that would work with your Gemini. Message me when you have a chance.
Thanks Lisa. Will do
I’m still looking at your fantastically beautiful work. You are such an amazing person. Your work astounds me, your attention to detail is so inspiring. Thank you.
Love thinking outside the box and this was fun to do. Really glad you are enjoying it too.
Hi Jean. I’m not sure where you are from but, is coloured vellum available or do you put something on. I’m going through all your videos and love them all. I’m in Australia and was at a craft shop yesterday and they only do the opaque one. I think that gold and light blue looked super… I’m enjoying all you videos. I’ve gone off doing normal cards. I’m into the more intricate ones. I love doing them.
Hi Doreen. I am in the UK and bought my vellum papers from Ebay. I think you can get them in Australia , but may be sold as coloured tracing paper rather than vellum papers.
@@JeanWaters thanks for that. I have ordered from eBay. (Should be here by 14 January 😳 🥴 ) Too late for Christmas, maybe next year.
@@dfmlees wow that is a long wait! Good luck with it.
Thanks Jean done. I look forward to your next video. 🥰
Jean where do I find you? Are you available on emails. I really don’t want to miss any more of your work. Thanks Doreen.
Hi Doreen. Thank you for subscribing. If you click on subscribe you should see a bell icon next to it. Click on that and you can choose to receive notifications when I post new videos. Hope that helps.
Absolutely fabulous card. Great tutorial. Thank you.
Really happy that you enjoyed it.
Hi Jean! This is the most absolutely amazing! My FAVORITE Christmas card (shadow box) EVER! I know you were in a time crunch but I wish there were a way to slow it down so someone like me (I've made a few just not as intricate) could follow along. I live in the US and I hope you were able to tell us what dies you used and where we could get them. Thank you so very much for teaching us. Its beautiful to say the very least. Blessed and Happy Holidays from V in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA
so pleased you like the tunnel book! I didn't list the dies as it was all about creating from my stash , which means some dies are no longer available. However, it seems as if the main set of dies is still available on ebay and here is a link to one of the sets . ( putting in Create a scene nativity cutting dies seems to bring them up). I've shortened this link but it should work! USA : tinyurl.com/cdxfy33z UK: tinyurl.com/scbwyn8
I probably could make a long video but this is not a quick project , so you would probably die of boredom!! LOL Happy to answer any queries you might have though
AMAZING!!! and so beautiful, and so many great ideas for partial die cutting. So many ideas now. Thank you very much for a lovely tutorial.
So pleased you enjoyed it. I had fun creating it and hope that you find it helpful as you make your own projects. Have fun!
WOW!!! Thank you so much, I am in love with this and I am so inspired to try one.
I am no expert bookbinder but enjoyed doing it and of course it was fun assembling the end result, so hope you find the same!
Absolutely gorgeous card and you've done an excellent job with explaining. I've enjoyed your video thoroughly... Thank you
It makes me very happy to know you enjoyed it. Thank you
@@JeanWaters how to get the die and the machine
@@nazzyTv9060 That particular die no longer made , but similar ones available via craft shops, ebay and amazon. Machine is Sizzix Big Shot - widely available.
Amazing
Muy lindo!
What a great idea. Thanks so much
Glad it was helpful 😃
This is beautiful, can you please tell me what type of cardstock you used and where to get it. Ty!
Hi , so pleased you like it. I used pearlescent/pearl cardstock 300gsm(90lb). I am in the UK and ordered it from www.thepaperbox.co.uk but many good craft shops sell similar cardstocks wherever you are in the world, as of course does Amazon. Hope that helps.
@@JeanWaters ty so much, I'm in New York USA I hope I can get it here as I have been trying to get the cordenos imperial cardstock and its been a headache because no one sells it here in the US.
@@panchosworld9423 I hope you succeed! Just make sure it is double sided as some pearlescent card can be one side only.Worth checking.
@@JeanWaters ty so much.
A very informative tutorial. Thank you
so pleased you found it helpful
Wooow it Is gorgeous!!! I thought to make this kind of invitation was harder, but you make it so easy thanks for this video🥰🥰
so happy to have helped. Enjoy your crafting!
Pretty ❤💕
thank you
